I wonder if removing the conflict from the scope, like in option C, is really a viable solution. It seems like it could just delay things further.

This situation reminds me of a practice question where we had to manage conflicting requirements. I think we decided that mediation was key, which aligns with option A.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about the typical production environment setup for BPM Suite.

Hmm, this looks straightforward. I'll need to think through the different virtual interface options and determine which one is required to use the AWS Direct Connect connection.

I'm feeling a bit uncertain about whether the lack of public input really subverts the process. It seems like efficiency might be a valid reason, but I remember practice questions stressing the importance of public participation.

A resolution process is definitely needed here. Mediation seems like the best way to get Gary and Janet on the same page without escalating the conflict.
